*** FAA Purchases Additional Security Equipment
WASHINGTON-The Federal Aviation Administration announced today that it would
purchase more than 150 additional security devices for the nation's airports,
continuing to implement a recommendation by the White House Commission on
Aviation Safety and Security. "Thanks to the $100 million Congress recently
appropriated for this purpose in fiscal year 1999 we have been able to continue
deploying state-of-the-art security equipment to protect the flying public,"
said Cathal L. Flynn, associate administrator for civil aviation security. "In
partnership with the aviation industry, we are raising the baseline of security
to meet the evolving threat." http://www.faa.gov/apa/pr/
